Maybe it's just me/my computer (I usually use Firefox browser), but the menu bar at the top of the page that began on the left with "Home" is missing. Has it been replaced or eliminated? I would usually go there to enter the forums by way of a drop-down box that offered me options of "Posts Within the Last Day" or "Posts Within the Last 2 Days" (or something reasonably similar to that). It's been absent before but usually reappears relatively soon. Now missing for me for several days. Were these options relocated, eliminated, etc?

Thanks!

Same here. Using Safari. I also found that it was my favorite way to enter the site, to see what had changed in the last day or 2. One click and I was there.

That menu was a javascript addition. Something apparently happened to it during Mike's latest updates.

Thanks, Arne.... then it's not me or my machine. I really did like the ability to view posts from 1 and 2 days ago.... is that available elsewhere and I'm not seeing it? I see the "Today's Posts" and "New Posts" on the left, but am more interested in the last 24 hours & two days ago...

I never used those links so I don't remember what they looked like. I always just use the "new" posts link. However, the "Today's Posts" link looks like this:

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily

Looking at the vBulletin support page I see that it's possible to pass an extra parameter to the getdaily function to specify the number of days to go back, i.e.,

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=4

... will show all posts for the last 4 days (even though the page header will still say "Posts From Last Day"). Until the home page gets fixed you can always bookmark the above link and use it instead. Be careful to bookmark the link I supplied, not the result you get after clicking on it because it actually redirects you to a different URL.

I didnt like that menu bar. Looks 'cleaner' without it IMHO.

Thanks for the link, Mike. That will work well. It was just convenient to have the results from one or two days available at a touch. Four will do what I want!

Four was just an example. Edit the URL to specify however many days you want:

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=1

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=2

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=3

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=4

There's also a 'Today's Posts' tab in the User's Login box on the homepage.
